It’s that time of the year again. November is National Novel Writers Month which means all over the country, would-be authors get an extra push and write at least 50,000 words of a novel in 30 days. It sounds crazy but it can be done. The numbers work out to about 1700 words every day…

Running Plans And Otherwise
It’s been a couple of weeks since I ran. I was hoping to resume last week but recovering from my not-a-glamp camping trip took the better part of a couple of days and then the next few days got so busy what with trying to catch up on all that I had missed. Hopefully, this…
Introduce Me

Reading For Runners
Ask me anything and when I offer my own advice based on what I’ve experienced or thought about, I’ll also add a book recommendation so you can do some research on your own and maybe even come back and teach me a thing or two. I’m in the middle of week 7 of my daily…
